Save your local stores, spend locally
Came across this site that is trying to bring awareness to the importance of saving local businesses. According to them, for every $100 spent in a locally owned business, $68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll, etc. A national chain, only $43 stays locally. Online, nothing.
As a local business owner, I can't help but think about this.
The site is www.the350project.orghttp://www.the350project.org
